Installing the PTO
☐
Except as noted below, follow the mechanical portion of the OEM PTO
installation instructions (210 Series).
It is extremely important to ensure that no foreign particles or
debris enter the PTO port on the transmission.
On 4x4 vehicles, mark the front drive shaft with a grease pen (or
similar permanent marker) for re-alignment later. Unbolt the front of
the drive shaft, pivot it out of the way and secure it to allow room
to install the PTO.
The PTO electrical installation will be covered in “Installing the
Control Components” and differs from the OEM PTO instructions.

Clock the hydraulic fitting on the transmission pressure port to 12 o’clock
